Friction is necessary for motion control and safety.
Friction can be increased or decreased depending on the situation.
Lubricants reduce friction between moving parts.
Rolling friction is less than sliding friction.
Fluid friction affects objects moving through liquids and gases.
Friction is the friend we need, helps us walk, drive, and succeed.
Imagine a world without friction: cars would slide off roads, we’d tip and fall everywhere. Friction keeps everything in place!
To remember types of friction, think of SS-R: Static, Sliding, and Rolling.
The grooves in shoe soles and tire treads increase friction for better grip.
Pouring oil on a door hinge reduces friction and allows smooth movement.
Sports equipment, like soccer shoes, uses spikes to increase grip.
When moving heavy objects, using rollers reduces sliding friction.
Term: Friction
